Tigers Wrap MatMen Open, Get Set for Top Opponents in '22
December 30, 2021 | Wrestling
The final tournament of the 2021 season came to a close for the Princeton wrestling team on Thursday at the MatMen Open outside Chicago.
Sophomore Nate Dugan, at 174, had the highlight win of the event for Princeton, defeating Rutgers' Jackson Turley, ranked 16th in the nation by InterMat. Dugan was one of five Princeton wrestlers to advance to the tournament's second day on Thursday, though the Tiger contingent came up just short of wrestling for placement. Dugan and Marshall Keller, at 149, advanced furthest in the main draw, with each making the quarterfinals.
Results for the MatMen Open can be found here.
Princeton is scheduled for 10 dual meets over a 41-day stretch between January and mid-February, with five of those coming against fellow teams ranked in the Dec. 23 National Wrestling Coaches Association top 25.
After opening the run at Rider on Jan. 8, Princeton will host No. 5 North Carolina State and No. 6 Arizona State on back-to-back Sundays in Jadwin Gym. On Feb. 5, No. 8 Cornell will visit Jadwin, and the final two top-25 opponents will host Princeton on the road, at No. 17 Lehigh on Feb. 11 and No. 12 on Feb. 18.
